Re: shark fin
I ave one mate and the problem is there is two wires on the original aerial and if urs is like mine ur wire might be to short so the only place that stocks the extension aerial wire to fit it is halfords and they are £7.99
If it ain't green and black send it back

Re: shark fin
Apartenly there crap when retro fitted never used one myself due to such bad reviews on them, channels are ment to be very hard to tune and find
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway
